AdiIRC 1.5 - Free Customizable IRC Client

adi picAdiIRC 1.5 (Windows, Freeware, 437KB) [via FileForum] is an IRC client with multiserver support and a customizable interface. It offers all the standard IRC features including private chats, basic Identd features, sysinfo, and Winamp support. The program stores all its settings in text files and does not require installation.

Recent changes:

  • MainWindow now resizes to previous state when clicking trayicon
  • Fixed small bug with /uptime
  • Added option to disable quick connect dialog
  • Added option Highlight on channel activity
  • Fixed issue where nick colors would generate same as background
  • Added winamp %artist,%title,%album,%year,%track,%genre,%duration,%length vars
  • Rewrote Winamp song parser, now reading id3 tags
  • Fixed small bug with #channel rightclick in server windows
  • Added "Disable external messages" chanmenu
  • Added Serverlist/options/dcc/cascade/tile horiz/tile vert icons
  • Added Rightclick statuspanel to quick change media player
  • Added Server/channel/query/ icons to windows
  • Links now open in a new thread
  • Added Windows Media player and QCDPlayer /np support and options
  • Added CTRL + O and CTRL + S shortkeys to options and serverlist
This could be a great free alternative to mIRC. I currently use HydraIRC, but AdiIRC seems to have a nicer user interface. Also, its most unique feature would probably be its built-in Winamp support.
